Barcelona has reportedly entered talks with the representatives of Super Eagles and Atalanta BC attacker, Ademola Lookman.
The 27-year-old enjoyed a stellar 2023-24 campaign, winning African Player of the Year whilst also collecting a Europa League winners medal as part of La Dea.
Lookman has continued his sensational form into the current season, with the former Everton attacker scoring 13 goals and providing five assists across 23 Serie A appearances.
As a result, there has been plenty of interest in the forward from across the European ecosystem, particularly in England, where Chelsea are believed to be preparing a bid.
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, a new major player has entered the race alongside the likes of Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea for the talents of Lookman.
